Black Venom from Motiv Bowling | is this the best venom yet? | Full review

[@NicCastrucci513]

Bro you definitely ate edibles before filming this 🤣🤣🤣

[@Eeezzy_K]

Was just gonna write that….some happy smoke. 😂

[@SamFisher300]

Somebody taking happy pills

[@thickpickles2325]

Legal Weed!

[@danielkaurin8439]

So, happy pills come with the ball? Lol 😂

[@thomasrowell6207]

Good s**t😂

[@jasontom7278]

Drilled this ball for a friend of mine. It is really good. Much rounder and more continuous than the Shock.

[@cameronmorgan0203]

I love the way JR has amazing camera angles 💯👌🏾🙋🏾‍♂️👏🏾

[@jay0571]

Put my order in as soon as it was announced. Was a bit bummed when they pushed the release date but it's cool. Love the Coral Blue Venom, and as soon as I saw the gear APG with a stronger cover I knew I needed to have one. Appreciate the review.

[@drakeking3945]

I got to see you throw this at the Kokomo Classic on March 21. It was awesome to see you bowl in person after watching your videos for so long.

[@thndr44]

Loved the commentary!! Can tell you are having fun!!! Love the content!!

[@atown723]

I loved the Shock in other people's hands, but I think I like this Venom the best. That shape is undeniably nice.

[@zr0buks_]

I’ve had the shock for over 2 years now without looking what exactly is the difference it’s a little more aggressive?

[@erdalea20]

Threw this ball at an Motiv Demo this and the Shock were amazing. Loving the new tracers as well! Will that permanent now? We all hope so 😊

[@KSeet]

Did u get bitten by the cobra on the ball before filming?

[@stevekemp4669]

This will definitely be in my bag. Wanted a rounder version of the Shock. Here it is. Good step down from my Forge Flare.

[@andre3263]

How would you compare the shock to the flare and then both to the black venom?

[@Zudoarichidoari]

@@andre3263 Flare is just a completely different animal. From what I've seen, you need a lot of volume to use it and it's silly how much the thing hooks for a symmetric. Black Venom is somehow slightly cleaner than the Shock but smoother off the backend.

[@wesnotnice]

I don't usually pair up well with asyms but I love this ball! 757 first 3 games. Even though it's a solid it pairs nicely with the shock.

[@CKBowling1]

Someone was crinkling something in the camera/mic. Good video, like that you were light hearted and not just a stiff board review.

[@JustChuck1t]

I might have to give Motiv a chance after this review.

[@pbaker0514]

You won't regret it... I've been throwing it for almost 10 years!!

[@davidplank1222]

Knocked out my first 700 series (710) and threw twelve straight strikes (in two games unfortunately 😭) with my Coral Venom. I've had ridiculous amounts of good games with the Motiv Venom line, I look forward to adding this ball to my collection and racking up some more high games with it.

[@jasontom7278]

Watching this again. Forgot about the tracer that you did for a while. I like the tracer.

[@dannylogsdon6566]

I'm picking mine up on Friday 😅

[@erikd.k]

Hi JR. May I ask how much it costs to send a bowling ball to Europe Greece. Thank you.

[@bige5478]

Hi JR so if I were to use the Black Venom in a Tournament what would you recommend doing to the surface

[@in2ltv165]

Finally a ball review by somebody with a personality great vid bro I’m definitely buying this ball

[@chuckblair5]

Suggestions on how it should be drilled for a rh bowler, my pso suggested pin down ring finger to take the sharpness out and it doesn’t move at all just skids and now I use it for a spare ball😢

[@MLBOWLER]

hello, what is the layout? nice video. thanks.

[@RicardoSanchez-x8y]

Would this pair well with my Nuclear Forge?

[@kevinhaw4272]

You are crazy JR! Never change and nice review ❤😂 We struggle to get Motiv balls here in England, no proper main distributor since covid or maybe ever, but now with the exchange rate, import costs too and inflation etc. All the remaining pro shop owners need to club together and do a big order to make it worthwhile I suppose. Balls are already way more expensive here, rarely get discounted or by much. Will try to get my hands on one though! Wanted the Blue Coral but that wasn't possible at the time. Anyway, good luck at your next PBA event 🍀

[@marcuswest4776]

I'm just curious to know, what is the pin placement of this ball, and what is the top weight of this ball you threw??

[@Harvard_Fairway]

Super intrigued by this ball

[@MBWLu]

Where exactly does this ball fit within someone's bag along with its Blue Coral Venom sibling? Can this also be paired with two asyms at the top of someone's arsenal as both balls are mid-ish tier asyms?

[@petermilder1912]

I've been wanting a ball to compliment the Venom Shock when I need to get out of it's reaction. I believe this is it! JR great to see you in such a great mood. #Motivnation.

[@jimk9290]

You can't beat strikes. But this ball gets there without ever wiggling at the break point. It's one of those balls that turns the corner and never stops going left.

[@rodneymartinez7026]

Love the joy in this video. Great review brother.

[@johntoney5367]

im in chicago. what days are u in the shop

[@handsoundsplease]

Whats the difference between this ball and the primal venom?

[@Zudoarichidoari]

what layout was on this?

[@relaxedpuppet]

35x3.5x30

[@Zudoarichidoari]

@@relaxedpuppet holy crap that is STRONG. thanks!

[@otrsmalls252]

what layout would you recommend putting on a raw hammer

[@bige5478]

Just got the ball yesterday and drilled the same way as my exotic gem but this was smoother also hooked alot during league last night

[@classicdell]

On what lane condition would you use this particular bowling ball in your opinion?

[@donsmith7771]

Had mine pre ordered when they announced it.. then threw it at a test drive 2 weeks ago and I'm already ordering a second lol

[@pbaker0514]

I ordered two, as well!😅

[@demetriusjohnson7189]

Just bought mine and threw a 290 out the box. Wicked ball. Motive is the choice for me from now on. Great video! Was he high on something?

[@2handlife200]

Would love to see this vs the Envy Tour. Although I may just pick this up based on how good it looks.

[@jimbailey9830]

Yeah this is better lol

[@danpoteet]

i will gladly throw $$$ at just about any ball they print a snake logo on, all the venoms fit my game perfectly thus far.

[@GorillaGlueEnthusiast]

I'm currently throwing the raw solid and wondering how this compares? I also have an old venom panic that I use polished up every now and then but haven't even thrown one more recent than a shock. Appreciate the content🤘

[@michaelwilliams9658]

Direct comparison between the two (having only rolled the Black Venom and observed the Raw Solid), the two balls are very similar. The combination of cover (3K on the Hammer and 4K on the Motiv) and core (symmetric vs asymmetric) yield similar shape and response on the lane with the Black Venom providing a little more flexibility in layout choices and a little more angle down lane. The hammer is a little earlier and rounder, but only negligibly different.

[@Zudoarichidoari]

anyone knows how this compares to the envy tour? really similar core numbers as far as i know

[@chrismagory9423]

How does it compare to the shock

[@josephbutler3577]

What's the layout numbers on this ball

[@decadude8968]

No review for the Capitv8?

[@BowlerXcom]

No

[@christopher7310]

curious as to how this ball pairs with or compares to the Venom Shock and Jackal Ghost? I do like this ball but is it worth getting if I'm already running those two?

[@bobjanicki9045]

Great video jr if would drill another black venom how would you drill it

[@Johnny-sm2lb]

Question: On your 35× 3.5 × 30 layout, after testing out this layout on the Motiv Black Venom would you change or tweak the layout in any way ? In your review video, It looked perfect for this ball. Just wondering. Thank you !!! I recently purchased this ball but haven't had it drilled yet. P.s. loved the Beyonce dance warm up !😂 👍

[@pbaker0514]

Damn, let me get some of what you've got!!😅 Pre-ordered mine's last month... can't wait to get it!!

[@kayleebeaumont8659]

I like that you did this review on speed. 😅 But seriously that ball looked fantastic. I'll definitely be getting one. All the balls in the venom line have been great for me.

[@JarJarFettLV]

I currently throw a venom shock and a fatal venom, would it be worth adding this one as a third ball in the bag?

[@frisbeefrolf]

JR, I know this is an older vid, but how did the black compare to blue coral? Are they different spots or similar enough to pick one?

[@BowlerXcom]

Coral was earlier for me

[@frisbeefrolf]

@@BowlerXcom does this mean the coral is stronger front to back despite being a hybrid cover?

[@jacksonmoore7734]

do you make training videos to buy?

[@JustChuck1t]

First member and virtual lesson. Jump on it folks.

[@Tenpindoctors]

I’ll get your review back to you asap

[@sportsfntc]

Drugs are bad.. mmmmkay... just kidding JR.. I like the entertainment value you're adding to these videos.

[@badknees82]

just finished . - Practing with mine and Its awsome

[@briandemello2695]

Great job JR love the video😊

[@annbiel-hh1bl]

I have the Shock,Viper and I ordered the Black Venom……I can’t WAIT!!!

[@pugman3174]

I don't know how the pros will like it but this looks like a league shot killer.

[@Rosa_Motorsports]

Absolutely incredible!

[@remington1439]

Wanted to ask you what is the difference between the blue coral venom and the black one. I read about each one and the numbers are the same I believe. But many times I’ve hit the like button and subscribe and sent you a few messages. I guess you’re super busy dude. But if you can find time just tell me which one reads better’ I think the black one is 3kLSS and the blue is 4KLSS. Thanks JR. Hopefully you read this one. Thanks

[@ewatkins02]

Absolutely great versatile ball. I shot 300 with it the 4th time using it.

[@kingrich231]

Why can’t I get my black venom to hook like that

[@fatmark4]

Will you be doing an iq tour ruby review?

[@FinancePro203]

What do you charge for virtual coaching? I’m 45, average 180 in league play, want more revs, have tried all of the drills to no avail. Thx.

[@BowlerXcom]

$39 at www.tenpindoctors.com

[@stompingpeak2043]

Just take out that thumb and boom. High revs lol

[@Fluffyguy958]

What layout did you use on this ball?

[@michaelwilliams9658]

He gave the layout at 0:22 in the video.

[@chamberlainchronicales3147]

Looks good can't wait to see you throw the swagger graffiti tracker ball is nuts

[@SamFisher300]

Need one on one coaching

[@survivingbraindonor]

Who is this guy? Where is JR?

[@philburton1899]

Can't wait to get one love Black balls YOU Know WOW!!

[@robertloschiavo1314]

Glad to see some personality from you enjoyed this video

[@Berszerck]

[@TheOtherCaleb]

I was thoroughly entertained by this video 😂

[@kristoferdettloff1952]

Damn your silly today man! Love it. Gonna have to come talk to ya now! Get one ready! Lol.

[@gregwright4594]

Not 3 seconds b4 u said who spiked my drink I was thinking u had too much to drink lol. Ball looks great by the way, it might b my 1st Motiv cuz I really want a Venom Shock

[@Jackal_Blitz]

Somebody had their Wheaties this morning

[@BowlerXcom]

Protein power

[@dallasbaldridge8543]

Weedies

[@marcjohnson5268]

You should try to drill another one with your 45×4 1/2× 45 layout on it and do another review and then compare the two. ❤😊

[@freeekychiiild4765]

Wow! what happy pills you using? Great video's JR.

[@BowlerXcom]

High on life

[@ttvzynnyyy]

jr got some jokes today hahahaha, love it!

[@Charles13033]

Geez, that ball almost ran over the 7 pin on half those shots 😂

[@jeroldserrell9746]

Ball looks amazing nice video

[@flinch622]

That was fun. Ball almost didn't care where you threw it.

[@patrickallen649]

🥦Your most iconic review sir.😶‍🌫️

[@jimbailey9830]

Can u show the ball layout when u do videos. So is this pin alcove bridge, above middle finger or what? I don't know those numbers lol

[@MikeySteins-sp9ww]

I love the black vemom great for my game

[@peteymac84]

The shape of this ball is ridiculous 👀👀

[@tdub5693]

Have a lil Coffee with your coffee today pimp lol great video I've never had a Motive ball i like round tho

[@PokeComa]

I do enjoy the more simplistic videos with less camera angles and whatnot. just my opinion.

[@hierog]

Do they conduct random drug tests in the PBA???

[@imij812]

This is going to look great in JunJun's hands Looks awesome!

[@tigertolliver5199]

Brilliant!!!

[@bigd8812]

I hear the ambulance coming for him

[@billfleming8281]

That ball is a beast !

[@homefryism]

I love this ball

[@cameronmorgan0203]

Clean as a whistle 🔥

[@MikeLoves2Bowl]

I like that bowlifi jersey 😉

[@lukehoel236]

JR is drunk…lol. Great vid!

[@BowlerXcom]

A happy JR means a good bowling ball

[@maximillianvoisard]

I don't know if it was Coke, coffee, or beer. I'd just call it happy juice.😅

[@AsronPhotography]

Bro hit up the dab bar before hand

[@apolaconeagleeye8571]

Appreciate the reviews, but most of us cannot get pro ball motion. Enjoy your YT money. As in all pro ball reviews make the balls look amazing.
